Never ceasing to pound and pound
Against the walls of my withheld heart
A single wish that Im afraid to mouth
Three times a week, an hour at a time
My lungs refuse to breathe in air
To hide the burning tears inside my dry eyes
And I had made a vow to you right from the start
To see you through and through our lives
For despite having nailed all my wishes to the floor
Seeing you smile, though with another,
Has always been to me the brightest light
